Review: The Return by Rachel Harrison
This is just what I was craving; a completely unique and chilling read. The setting was phenomenal; a remote inn, with extravagantly- themed rooms. Having stayed at a hotel like this before, I can vouch to feelings of unease when … Continue reading

Review: Darling Rose Gold by Stephanie Wrobel
What a completely twisty read! The format (alternating chapters from the point of views of Patty and Rose Gold) really add to the tension, for the reader follows both women from the past to the present, Patty focusing on repairing … Continue reading

Review: The Chill by Scott Carson
I enjoy a good thriller with a well-developed backstory! The story of the Chilewaukee reservoir is a haunting one; an entire village lay submerged beneath the water. With it comes a cast of well-developed characters, both past and present. Aaron Ellsworth, son … Continue reading

Review: Before The Devil Fell by Neil Olson #murdermonstersmayhem
I thought I’d ease in to this round of Murder, Monsters & Mayhem with some light horror. Though the publisher has categorized t his as thriller, I’m thinking that anything that involves ritualistic deaths is automatically declared horror…but don’t get … Continue reading

Review: Middlegame by Seanan McGuire
Strange premise, yes. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve read anything like this, and that is what makes this book so tremendous. McGuire consistently takes her readers on whirlwind ride in her books, forcing them to suspend disbelief and put trust … Continue reading
